Not sure bunting was such a bad idea. Having a fast runner on 3rd with Votto up and 1 out is not a bad situation to be in.

Cabrera is usually pretty good at moving runners on his own. At least give him a chance to get a hit. Santana is going to be a tough match up even for Votto. Santana will get plenty of outs on his own skill I really don't like handing him any for free.

Ain't that the truth. And it's a good attribute for a ballclub.

So tired of watching Gomes hack at everything.

Go get em tomorrow boys.

A number of hacks on this team, but it seams most everyone fell into the trap tonight except Cairo and Votto on a couple occaissions.

Santana pitched well but the kids really didn't give him much of an opportunity to get in trouble.

It's interesting to look at the box score. OCab saw only 8 pitches in 4 AB's. Same for Corky Miller (only 3 AB). Gomes 10. Not surprisingly, those guys got one hit among them and that was Cabarrera. What got into them tonight? Or was that the plan? If so, it was a horrible failure. The team saw 113 pitches and had 30 AB. Sad.

Bunting was a really bad idea. Helped Santana out of trouble there.

Agreed. There is no reason to play for one run in the first inning. Especially if you already have a runner in scoreing position. :bang:

Maloney definitely pitches to contact.

At one time I had more faith in Maloney than I did in LeCure. My opinion has changed.

True. I don't think they need to be moved into starting roles, just played more often than 2 times a MONTH.
